Eye Current

Another Neat Tool from Fluke

Maybe this should be under the header "It's about time" We use clamp on current detectors all the time here at PCO but these are high current monitors for testing power supply outputs and so forth. The new Fluke 771 is used in testing process current loops, 4-20 ma loops in particular. Having to break a current loop in order to test the circuit isn't always practical and checking the Voltage won't always give us a real picture of whats happening. List price for this is $395. It could pay for itself the first time its really needed. This is going to be on every instrument techs must have list.
